Khadis Ibragimov is set to make his ACA debut on April 12 against undefeated heavyweight Daniil Matsola (7-0), who is 12 kg lighter. After going 0-4 in the UFC in 2020 and leaving the promotion, Ibragimov has rebuilt his career impressively with a 13-3-3 record across 19 fights under various rulesets. He claims his fight purses have increased four to five times compared to his UFC earnings, now reportedly earning 5-6 million rubles per bout. The same card also features Tony Johnson, who has victories over Derrick Lewis, Tim Sylvia, and Alexander Volkov, facing Kirill Kornilov. Ibragimov's career resurgence is highlighted as the best among Russian fighters who left the UFC, though questions remain about his consistency against elite opposition.
